Discovering Wisdom

Many of us are very self-critical, and whenever negative emotions appear, we fight or suppress them. This leaves us feeling bad afterwards. In this short video, Mingyur Rinpoche teaches us how criticizing ourselves creates more problems. He shows us how we instead can find wisdom within our emotions and come to see that our true nature is already good. You can discuss this teaching in the Monthly Teachings Forum under the topic Discovering Wisdom.
